After being excluded for a long time, Wang Duo couldn't help it, the former first prime minister of the imperial court, served as the prince's guest for a long time, this feeling is really uncomfortable, Wang Duo once formed an alliance with Cao Quanyang, looking forward to making a comeback, but unfortunately it didn't take long for Cao Quanyang to die in the battle against Huangchao, which was a heavy blow to him, because of the fall of power, the former protégés have thrown themselves into other ways, and the power in the court is getting smaller and smaller.

Under such circumstances, Wang Duo was about to take action.

In fact, when he was just a guest of the crown prince, Wang Duo used his influence to be able to speak in the court, there was a sharp contradiction between the eunuch Tian Lingzi and Yang Fuguang, Yang Fuguang was loyal to the emperor, and won the emperor's trust and the support of the soldiers of the Shence Army, Tian Lingzi was still a little jealous, Wang Duo also took advantage of such contradictions, tried his best to exert his influence, and put forward a lot of suggestions when the court discussed major matters.

The rise of Li Rupei has brought about a significant change in the pattern of the imperial court.

Tian Lingzi and Yang Fuguang both have a very good impression of Li Rupei, Tian Lingzi is needless to say, there is an irreconcilable contradiction between him and Li Rupei, as for Yang Fuguang, it is because of the matter of Lu Yanhong, who was once Yang Fuguang's henchman, but was killed by Li Rupei, which is also a huge blow to Yang Fuguang's local power.

But Zheng Jin, the first prime minister of the imperial court, bowed to Li Rupei, no matter when, he wanted to strive for the greatest interests for Li Rupei in the court, which has been seen by everyone, and some civil and military officials, for their own interests, also began to take refuge in Zheng Jin, hoping to seek a good future.

The contradictions of all parties are intertwined, and people can't help but think of Li Rupei's future.

Li Rupei is an authentic son of the Li Tang royal family and was canonized as a prince. It is one step away from the respect of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and the iron-blooded army under the command of Li Rupei is extremely brave, occupying Shannan East Road and Shannan West Road, and does not care about the imperial court's edict at all, and now it occupies a part of Huainan Road. Wait until the place is stable before making the next step.

This kind of twist and turn, everyone understands the meaning, that is, the iron-blooded army will not withdraw from Huainan Province, and it is very likely to find a suitable opportunity to occupy the entire Huainan Province, and at that time, Li Rupei's power will be unprecedentedly strong, directly threatening the emperor's position.

But when Zheng Zheng was still in the court. blindly helped Li Rupei say good things.

In Wang Duo's view, this is an opportunity.

Wang Duo knew the emperor's thoughts, although he said that the emperor was not very involved in government affairs, but he was still taboo for many princes. Li Rupei's strength is so great, the emperor must have an idea, and the previous battle between the royal family made the emperor even more worried. It's just that the power of the imperial court is gradually weakening, and it is simply powerless to interfere in the affairs of many feudal towns and jiedu envoys.

Tian Lingzi was always thinking about dealing with Li Rupei, and proposed to let the Iron and Blood Army help exterminate the rebels. It's not a good idea, originally I wanted to let the Iron Blood Army enter Huainan Road to fight with Huang Chao, so as to weaken the strength of the Iron Blood Army, but I didn't think that Huang Chao was not fooled at all, so he simply evacuated Huainan Road and hid in the Jiangnan area, which made Tian Lingzi's plan come to naught, and also made the Iron Blood Army more influential and occupied more places.

According to the development of this situation, once Li Rupei has the strength to completely shake the imperial court, Tian Lingzi's life will be extremely miserable, and in this case, Tian Lingzi will try every means to deal with Li Rupei.

Although Yang Fuguang said that he would not take the initiative to deal with Li Rupei and the Iron Army, he would also acquiesce in the face of Tian Lingzi's calculation of Li Rupei, after all, his henchman Lu Yanhong was killed by Li Rupei.

To put all this on the bright side, there needs to be an opportunity, and this opportunity is the opportunity for Wang Duo to make a comeback again.

Wang Duo's eyes were on the first prime minister, Zheng Jin.

The iron-blooded army won a victory in Huainan Road, defeated Huangchao, and killed Wang Xu, which is also a victory for the imperial court, which must be celebrated.

According to the arrangement of seats, it was impossible for Wang Duo to sit with Tian Lingzi, Yang Fuguang and others, but he had thought of a way in advance, relying on his own influence, and won a good seat in the emperor's banquet, close to Yang Fuguang, and it was not very far from Tian Lingzi.

Such a banquet, once you start drinking, the order cannot be very good, because many people also want to take the rare opportunity to curry favor with Tian Lingzi, Yang Fuguang, Zheng Jin, Liu Jurong and others, consolidate their positions, and look forward to being able to go to the next level.

After three rounds of wine, Wang Duo raised his glass to Yang Fuguang.

Yang Fuguang has always behaved very calmly, without too much expression on his face, but Wang Duo toasted, and there was still a smile on his face.

After drinking a glass of wine, Wang Duo turned to the side.

"Privy Envoy Yang, the emperor's banquet this time, I think it's also very helpless."

Yang Fuguang frowned and couldn't help but speak.

"How can Elder Wang Ge have such an opinion, our family really doesn't know what's going on."

Wang Duo's temptation was responded, if Yang Fuguang didn't speak, he wouldn't be able to continue, but now that he has spoken, it shows that Yang Fuguang also has ideas in his heart, because what he said is very sensitive.

"This banquet is because of the victory of the iron-blooded army, and the situation in Huainan Province has temporarily stabilized, but the area in Jiangnan has begun to be harassed by the Yellow Nest.

"What does Wang Ge always think?"

"I think that the strength of this iron-blooded army is gradually growing, and His Royal Highness King Yi should also have a statement."

After Wang Duo said this, he stopped speaking.

Yang Fuguang turned his head to look at Wang Duo, and did not continue to speak, many words can only be understood but not spoken, if it is completely explained, it will be meaningless, anyway, the meaning is basically clear.

Wang Duo is indeed scheming.

After the banquet, Yang Fuguang took the initiative to find Tian Lingzi, although there is a contradiction between the two, but one thing is similar, that is, for maintaining the emperor's status, Yang Fuguang is loyal to the emperor, Tian Lingzi is relying on the emperor to be able to achieve such great power, of course the two hope that the emperor's position can be stable forever.

But the rise of Li Rupei has threatened the imperial power, and there are many civil and military ministers in the court, showing their intention to take refuge in Li Rupei, and Zheng Zheng's performance is even clearer, which is undoubtedly a threat to the emperor and a danger to them.

Talking with Tian Lingzi, Yang Fuguang was straight to the point.

"General Tian, the twists and turns of Jiangnan East Road and Jiangnan West Road, our family has been paid attention to by the imperial court, and the imperial court can appoint Huainan Jiedu to make Bi Shiduo the commander of all the provinces and camps, and work together to encircle and suppress Huangchao."

proposed that Bi Shiduo be the commander of all the Dao camps, which was first proposed by Tian Lingzi, Yang Fuguang was against it at the beginning, but now he is in favor, of course Tian Lingzi understands the meaning.

"The proposal of the Yang Shufu envoy is very necessary, this Huangchao has rebelled for many years, and the tail is not big, and now it has suffered a heavy blow, the imperial court must take this opportunity to make a big move, and must not slack off."

The views of the two men quickly converged, and there was little argument after that, which is a rare occurrence.

However, Yang Fuguang still has ideas, he and Wang Duo have talked twice, and after careful consideration, he thinks that Wang Duo's proposal is reasonable, so he will discuss it with Tian Lingzi.

"General Tian doesn't know what he thinks about the situation in the imperial court."

"Privy Envoy Yang asked, I don't know what the intention is, our family thinks that it is difficult to successfully pass the court meeting by proposing Bi Shiduo to be the commander of all the Dao camps."

"What General Tian said is reasonable, and our family is also worried that it will not be able to pass smoothly, since this is the case, why not think of a way in advance to make this proposal pass smoothly."

A smile appeared on Tian Lingzi's face, since Yang Fuguang also had such an idea, he just took advantage of it, and when it came to this, there was no need to be polite.

"Privy Envoy Yang said this, our family is not welcome, Bi Shiduo is the commander of all the provinces, the most likely to raise objections is Zheng Ge Lao, if Zheng Ge Lao insists on opposition, the emperor is not easy to make a direct decision, this Zheng Ge Lao has always been to safeguard the interests of His Royal Highness King Yi, and it is unfavorable to the emperor and the imperial court......"

Before Tian Lingzi finished speaking, Yang Fuguang interjected.

"Our family recommends the prince's guest Wang Ge Lao to serve as the Ping Zhang Shi and Zhongshu Ling, as for Zheng Ge Lao, he has been working very hard all these years, but he can be the prince's guest and have a good rest."

"Our family is still Liu Jurong as the Zhongshu Order, Wang Ge Lao is the Pingzhang Minister, and the Ministry of Officials is still the Shangshu."

Yang Fuguang means that Wang Duo will be the first prime minister, but Tian Lingzi means that Liu Jurong will be the first prime minister, which is related to the power of the two in the court, and no one may compromise easily.

What Tian Lingzi didn't expect was that Yang Fuguang only thought for a moment before agreeing.

After all, Wang Duo had a fiasco in Huainan, this disgraceful stroke exists, rashly appointed as the first prime minister of the imperial court, I am afraid that some people will not be convinced, Liu Jurong has been the prime minister for a long time, and as the first prime minister, he can basically convince the public.

Needless to say, Zheng Jin's fate was directly put aside, Wang Duo is not bad, at least he became the prime minister of the court again, as for what to do in the future, Yang Fuguang believes that Wang Duo's ability is more than Liu Jurong's, and his influence is much greater, as long as it works well in the future, the first prime minister will still be attributed to Wang Duo, and at that time, he Yang Fuguang will be able to compete with Tian Lingzi again.
